We have funds for continuing loans to farmers who cannot get credit at banks and other government loaning agencies. We wish to call your attention to the fact that very few farmers can get Federal Land Bank loans,'in fact, they make an effort to stop loaning in these Northern Counties. ?Te wish especially to emphasize the above statement because the farmers have no where to look for financial help except through our Farm Security Office. T,�e now will have another duty given us through the action of the Farm Tenancy Law recently enacted by Congress and that is to loan money. We will have some farmers eligible for this class of loan in this County. We are passing this report to you as we know you are interested in lessening the number of families on relief rolls and to stabilize our farm income. We also wish to thank you as a -Member of the County Board for Bayfield County for past and future co-operation in our work. W. B. O'Sullivan, County Supervisor V. E.

The following report was read: Washburn, Wisconsin October 30, 1937 County Board Washburn, Wis . Gentlemen: past year: We beg to submit the following as our report on Buildings and Grounds for the COURTHOUSE The side walk from First Avenue to Second Avenue East on 8th Street was laid in accordance with plans'and outlay as provided in our 1937 Budget. 7-fe have to report, how- ever, we overran the amount of 0250. originally set aside by $170., the latter amount being accounted for by extra filling labor, trucking, etc., the surveyors report inaicating con- siderable more labor, trucking, material, e,tc., than we figured on,on account of increased 577 _NNUAL MEETING OF TIE BAYFIELD COUNTY BOARD NO?FFiJfRT{R 9. 1937 elevation necessary. In this connection, will advise we provided the usual approaches to the side walk on entering the Courthouse yard on the north as well as approaches clear across the front of the Central heating Plant and garage. A general change has been ivade in -the new arrangement of furniture and space in the.Treasurer's Office, a decided improvement worked out'by the Treasurer with no expense whatever to the County. On -account of general clean up with reference to•painting and varnishing last year, not much work of that nature was necessary. Will advise, however, we are figuring on considerable painting and varnishing for 1938. The amount necessary for same is in- cluded in our 1938 budget. We are planning necessary guard rail on steps to upper floor and will be in- stalled as early as can be. Considerable work will be necessary provided the Board decides to arrange additional vault space in the Courthouse. This, however, will be the subject of another report. For your information will advise it was necessary to procure a new lawn mower. The amount necessary for this besides application. of value of old mower which could not be repaired has amounted to IP"287.90. Same will last for a number of years, however. rile have provided hot water for the Courthouse. The amount necessary was reasonable for the reason that for nine months hot water is procured direct from the boiler in the Central Iieat;in?'3plarit with no extra cost for water. The other three months, hot water is furnished by direct heater at a very nominal amount. We con- sidered this the proper thing to do as an electric unit would cost $185.00 besides considerable outlay for electricity every month. This arrangement also furnishes hot water to the Sheriff's residence and jail. JAIL Lower floor, walls, etc. have all been painted, windows repaired, etc. and with the exception of some attention to the toilets, same seems to be in proper con- dition. SHERIFF'S RESIDENCE We have provided necessary clothes poles and lines for the residence as well as hot water above referred to, and with some additional wiring in kitchen, same will, no doubt, be 0. K. Urinals have been placed in small wash room next to the men's toilet. This places that convenience in good condition and up to date.' Our budget has been carefully figur2d out, has been presented to the finance committee for their consideration and approval. Respectfully submitted: J_. A¢ Rivers August J-ohanik A. E.

REI1110DELING PER SKETCH DATED Nov. 18, 1936 A plan to remodel the offices of County Treasurer and Clerk together with old engine room, etc. in basement would, it is estimated, cost about $8000. This will prov- ide about 3486 Cubic feet on the main floor and 2739 cubic feet in basement, a total of 6225 cubic feet. If air conditioning is arranged for, the above space will be cut down about 2500 feet for Machinery, etc. at added cost of.41*3000. T] A. C1 TM?, ffTTATM TT n TTT rn r,ATT IT ,Mork, material, etc. to construct such vault will cost approximately $4500. This arrangement would relieve the County Clerk's vault of what is now taken up by County Treasurer. 10% additional should be added for Contractor and 41.% Social Security and bond. ADDITI013S TO BACK OF COURTHOUSE Approximate cost $22,000. County's share about $12,500. An addition to the rear of the Courthouse from west to east side with depth of 24 feet as already written up and approved by. the T`T.P.A. would cost about 4,22, 000 , county share about $12, 690. TA.Fe could figure some reduction on our proportion in as much as the Quarry Co, will agree to pay Bayfield County $469.79 uncollected taxes thereby averaging same to about $12,000. -610 ANNUAL MEETING OF THE BA`FIELD COUNTY BOARD NOVEI:�ER 11, 1937 - -- - -- ---------- The Building and Grounds Committee strongly recommend that,the addition be built as it will provide ample additional vault space for many years to come, whereas, if we adopt any of the preceeding plans, relief would be provided for a period of S or 10 years only. This will also enable the County to provide additional work this winter which otherwise would, no doubt, be relief cases. Respectfully submitted: J. A.Rivers August Johanik A. E. Swanson Buildings & Grounds Committee We, the Finance Committee, approve of the building of an annex vault on rear of the Courthouse in accordance with specifications outlined in the ?,T.P.A. project which has been properly approved of. We further suggest that work be started as soon as can be to avoid climbing costs of materials, and so forth, the fact that the supervising foreman who handled the garage work is available, and further excavation work should be started almost immediately, in order to avoid a repetition of conditions as experienced in the building of the Central Heating Plant and Garage.

Oct. 20, 1937 Dear Gentlemen -.of the County Board of Bayfield Co.: I am enclosing a clipping out of the Duluth paper which will be of interest to every one, as it would be a great help to most farmers in Bayfield. Please read it to the members of the County Board at your next rfleeting, and give it a few minutes of discussion, and I for one hope that Bayfield County can afford to undertake to do what Gogebic is doing. Yours truly, HUGH SUMTER Moved by Nohl and seconded by johanik to receive the foregoing communication and place on file.. IJotion carried. The following communication was read: Chairman, Bayfield County Board Washburn, Wis. Dear Sir: November 2, 1937 We are'vitally interested in the matter as to when the back payment of relief moneys due us and our merchant customers will be paid. It seems that the whole relief proposition has been a matter of Tpassing the buck' from one to another and we are at a loss to know to whom we shall look for payment. Many Ashland and Bayfield County officials are under the impression that the State will reimburse the counties from the last three million dollar appropriation. ?le have a letter from IaIr. P. D. Flanner, director of relief in Wisconsin, to the effect, however, that this is not so and that all the counties of the state must of necessity meet all of their relief costs during the past five months entirely from local funds. We understand that the County Board will meet November 9th and presume the relief matter will again come up for discussion. Will you kindly take it upon ,yourself to get a definite ruling or decision as to who is responsible for the payment of the relief moneys due: since last Ilay and bring it before the board at their next session. If you have a regular routine of business or schedule of events which wl11 be brought up, we would like to know ahead of time when the relief matter will be discussed so that we might arrange to be present. This will be greatly appreciated and thank you. Yours very truly, Cramer Mercantile Co. By R. F.
